Service Overview
Service Overview
R&D (Research and Development) at TP-LAB bridges the gap between an idea and serial production
We take on the most complex part: finding the optimal formulation and fine-tuning the process so you do not waste costly machine time on endless experiments
For whom:
Factories launching new product lines, polymer-industry startups, and companies transitioning to recycled raw materials
Service Formats:
Development of custom compounds, material import substitution, and cost reduction without compromising quality
What We Do
Formulation Development
Development of custom formulations for specific customer requirements, including UV resistance, flammability, and impact strength
Processability Analysis
Determination of the optimal processing window, including temperature settings, pressure, and cooling rate
Weight and Cost Reduction
Selection of additives and modification of material structure to reduce product weight without sacrificing rigidity
Integration of Recycled Raw Materials
Professional formulation development using recyclates while preserving the product’s physical and mechanical properties
Methodology and Standards
We use the systematic Design of Experiments (DoE) approach
Mathematical design of experiments to minimize the number of iterations
Verification of results according to ISO/ASTM standards
Proprietary methods for assessing material life cycle (Life Cycle Analysis)
Instrumentation and Facilities
The laboratory is equipped with modern instrumentation
-
Laboratory lines for producing prototypes and pilot samples
-
Pilot testing of materials before launch on the customer’s main production line
-
A database of tested polymers and additives accumulated since 2017
Client Outcomes
Production-Ready Technology
You receive a complete process map and formulation ready for immediate implementation
Economic Impact
Shorter molding/extrusion cycles and a lower defect rate
Innovation
The opportunity to launch a product your competitors do not yet offer, such as biodegradable or ultra-strong plastic
